Which Difficulty Should You Pick in NBA 2K24?
There are six difficulties in NBA 2K24. The difficulties are Rookie, Semi-Pro, Pro, All-Star, Superstar, and Hall of Fame. Here’s how the difficulties are different.
- Rookie – Very easy difficulty. 30% of VC and MyPOINTS
- Semi-Pro – Easy difficulty. 60% of VC and MyPOINTS
- Pro – Normal difficulty. 100% of VC and MyPOINTS
- All-Star – Hard difficulty. 120% of VC and MyPOINTS
- Superstar – Very hard difficulty. 140% of VC and MyPOINTS
- Hall of Fame – Extremely hard difficulty. 160% of VC and MyPOINTS
If you are new to NBA 2K24, I recommend playing on the Rookie or Semi-Pro difficulties. Once you get your feet wet and get a good grasp of how to play, you can bump the difficulty up to give yourself a challenge.
If you are a returning NBA 2K player, I recommend playing All-Star or Superstar. If you want the highest challenge with the best rewards, try Hall of Fame and see if you’re MVP material.
How to Change Difficulty in NBA 2K24
